Big Tip Is Fake

A Pattaya songrthaew bus driver thought his luck was in when two customers left him what he thought was a large tip but his excitement was short lived.

Mani Phuchura, 63, went to the police after going to exchange the bank notes where he was informed that they were forgeries. He said “The money looked to be of high value” and was more than happy when the two customers did not want any change.

The two men who he believed to be from the Middle East travelled from the Memorial Hospital in Pattaya Klang to Pattaya Soi 7 beach road.

Let’s hope this is the last we hear of people being taken for a ride with fake bank notes.
